Superminimalism (and spa) for Balmain SS14

Good skin has played a major role at the spring collections, where the new breed of makeup minimalism emerging on the runway seems to demand a healthy natural glow.

That's why Balmain's backstage was turned into a spa, where Tom Pecheux gave each model a ten minutes facial massage in order to increase circulation, calm the redness and reduce the puffiness, and applied as a final touch Estée Lauder Idealist Serum and DayWear Moisturizer. After this fab treatment the girls were fresh and glowing so Pecheux used just a bit of concealer where needed, he brushed their brows, and curled their lashes.

That's it. A few easy steps for an healthy glow and the models were ready to go on the catwalk. Also the hair, created by Sam McKnight, had an effortless look and were clean, easy and relaxed.
